the united states enters world war ii. it looks gramm. it looks like we cannot possibly win this war. the roosevelts find a way to do it. leaders have to fix problems. i do not think that 1% of the people in the country will remember the speaker of the house during world war ii. the president has that responsibility. what is interesting is that i think president obama realizes that and i would expect governor romney, if he becomes president, would realize that as well. that is where the buck stops, as has been said. host: a lot of people call in to talk about what mitch mcconnell said about the main goal of the republicans after the apollo win. you reported -- after the obama wind. you reported on the full context -- after the obama win. you reported on the full context of what he said. guest: he is a tough guy. he has been excoriated for saying that they were making sure obama was a one-term president. we have dug into the interview, we wanted to find out exactly when he said that. turns out what he also said was that he did not want oba
